MEET OUR DOCTORS

Dr. Douglas Palmer

Dr. Palmer is a nationally recognized cosmetic restorative dentist. He completed his undergraduate studies at California State University at Fullerton where he received a full academic scholarship. Dr. Palmer attended Northwestern University Dental School and graduated in 1975. After graduation, he served his country in the United States Air Force where he gained tremendous experience in all phases of restorative dentistry.

Dr. Palmer was recruited by a large group practice in Southeastern Wisconsin and was there until 1988. During his time there, he served as the Clinical Director for the Racine offices. He also oversaw the professional standards of all of the offices in this group. While in Wisconsin, Dr. Palmer served on the state board of directors for the Academy of General Dentistry and the Committee for Alternative Delivery Systems for Blue Cross Blue Shield of Wisconsin.

Family commitments required a move to Illinois in 1988. Dr. Palmer began his practice, Montgomery Dental Center, in Montgomery, Illinois. In June of 2000, he moved the facility to Oswego, where he could provide the kind of advanced quality care Kendall Pointe Dental is known for. This quality care is reflected in Dr. Palmer’s commitment to continuing education.

Dr. Palmer has been honored by the Academy of General Dentistry with a fellowship award recognizing this commitment to continuing education. He serves on the Peer Review Committee for the Illinois State Dental Society. He is a regular attendee at the Kois Center for Dental Excellence and the Board of Directors for Contemporary Dental Forum, a Seattle Study Club. He maintains memberships in the American Dental Association, Illinois State Dental Society, Chicago Dental Society, Fox River Valley Dental Society, the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, and the International Academy of Comprehensive Aesthetics.

Dr. Michael Subtelny

A Naperville native, I am excited to return to the area and provide outstanding dental care to my fellow residents. I graduated with Honors from The Ohio State University (Go Bucks!) with a B.S. in Microbiology and from Midwestern University in Downers Grove with a Doctor of Dental Medicine. For my achievements in dental school, I was inducted into the Omicron Kappa Upsilon National Dental Honor Society. Following graduation, I completed an optional yearlong General Practice Residency at Advocate Illinois Masonic Medical Center in Chicago. As a result, I gained experience in more advanced dental procedures such as surgical extractions, IV sedations, placing and restoring implants and management of dental emergencies.

I have always been a big proponent on giving back to the community, specifically increasing access to dental services. I was fortunate enough to travel to Panama in 2009 as part of Global Brigades on a dental/medical trip and helped coordinate a veteran stand down event in Wheaton so some our most needy soldiers could get the care they required.

I am an active member of the Chicago Dental Society, Illinois State Dental Society, Academy of General Dentistry and American Dental Association. I have certifications in Invisalign, Dental Laser Utilization and ACLS/BLS. Outside of dentistry, I am a licensed private pilot and love to travel, cook and play sports.

I look forward to meeting you and working together to give you your best smile!
